Out-of-control players in the world of Detective Conan

Conan makes one last attempt to salvage the situation, and ends up arguing with Qi Ming.

Conan: "But, but where are the shoes? Logically, we should be able to find the bloodstained size 30 shoes!"

Qi Ming: "Conan, perhaps you're too fixated on using all the evidence. Only one part of my reasoning is true: Ogiwara Keie is the murderer."

Conan: "But..."

Qi Ming: "Conan, I'll say it again: can you find a more perfect deduction than mine?"

……

Finally, after a long debate, Conan fell silent.

Yes, although there are many suspicious points at the scene, the fact that the murderer is Ogiwara Ikee cannot be proven.

There were no bystanders, no witnesses; the only one who could prove that Ogiwara was Ikee was herself.

Conan glanced at Ogiwara Ikee's expression, which was blank and numb.

There was no crying, no kneeling, no repentance.

Faced with this situation, she had given up thinking.

Ogiwara Ikee regretted going over to check when she heard that sound.

No matter how she tries to prove herself now, it will all be in vain.

“Ms. Ogiwara, please come with us. However, there are too many suspicious points in this case, so we need your cooperation in the investigation.”

Megure sighed and told the officers to bring out handcuffs.

Although he also felt that today's case was somewhat inexplicable, he had to find someone to go back and explain things to.

Police officers also have to go to work; they have tasks and deadlines set by their superiors.

When the deadline arrives, you'll be considered a murderer whether you're the real culprit or not.

Ogiwara Keie did not resist as she was handcuffed, staring blankly at the ground, not thinking about anything.

Conan stared blankly at the scene, feeling a pang of unease.

Finally, after a period of inner turmoil, he was filled with determination!

Conan quietly approached Qi Ming from behind and activated his wristwatch-shaped tranquilizer gun.

He wanted to put Qi Ming into a coma and frame the case as being committed by someone else.

Although Conan had already realized during the thorough search of the entire theater that the brief time was far from enough for the person outside to enter, commit the crime, and escape.

Although Conan also knew very well that the culprit could only be among them.

But there was nothing they could do; the murderer was just like the ghost Qi Ming had described, disappearing without a trace after committing the crime.

Rather than letting an innocent person take the blame, Conan ultimately decided to let the real culprit go.

Although this approach differs from his usual pursuit of the truth, Conan has made a rare conclusion this time.

This case remains unsolved.

Conan took a deep breath, aimed the tranquilizer gun at Qi Ming's nape, and pressed the button.

Piu!

The anesthetic needle was precisely injected into Qi Ming's body.

Then... Qi Ming staggered.

1 seconds passed.

2 seconds passed.

Ten seconds passed quickly.

"..."

Conan stared blankly at Qi Ming, who was still standing there as if nothing had happened.

"What happened? Did I miss?"

……

【hp-1】

Qi Ming scratched the back of his neck, somewhat puzzled.

Just now, he felt an itch on the back of his neck, and then the system notification "hp-1" appeared in front of him.

A notification of an abnormal status followed immediately.

[Already in a level 5 paralysis state; the paralysis effect will take effect in 7 seconds.]

Although Qi Ming was puzzled as to why he had become paralyzed, he quickly took out the item to remove the abnormal status from his backpack.

[Drug Name: Mini World Instrument]

Item description: The size of a ping-pong ball. Are you sure you want to ingest it?

Item Function: Removes abnormal status effects below level 20.

After playing with it for a few seconds, the paralysis warning disappeared.

He was confused.

Which treacherous subject dares to plot against me?

Qi Ming looked behind him and saw no one except Conan, who was holding a strange watch and staring at him with a puzzled expression...

Hmm, a watch?

Qi Ming felt a little strange looking at the unique watch Conan was wearing.

Something's not right. Something's definitely not right.

Why is there a sight on the watch?

A blue light flashed in Qi Ming's eyes as his prosthetic eye began scanning Conan.

Soon, Qi Ming had a complete look at all of Conan's amazing gadgets.

High-tech bow tie with variable voice, watch-shaped tranquilizer gun, leg-strengthening shoes, and integrated zoom glasses for location tracking and eavesdropping...

Holy crap, a cyber lunatic?

Qi Ming withdrew the scanner and stared at Conan in disbelief.

This is set in the 90s! Where did you get all that gear? Are you cheating?

"Brother Qi Ming, why are you looking at me like that?"

When Qi Ming looked over, Conan quickly snapped out of his daze, hid his watch behind his back, and forced a calm smile.

However, he was also puzzled, as the anesthetic needle had indeed been inserted.

Why isn't Qi Ming reacting at all?

Qi Ming ignored Conan's perfunctory attitude, grabbed Conan's arm, and showed him his watch.

Qi Ming's mind raced for a moment, and then he suddenly realized.

"Oh, famous detective, is this how you usually solve cases?"

"Because adults don't listen to or believe what children say, you find an opportunity to anesthetize one of them, and then use the voice changer around your neck to impersonate his voice to deduce the truth."

"If you encounter a prisoner who refuses to submit, you run up to him and use this shoe to deliver a right roundhouse kick and a left front kick until he submits, right?"

Conan's expression turned somewhat fearful.

Why did Qi Ming know the secret of the equipment he was wearing?

"W-what? What voice changer? What shoes and tranquilizer gun? What are you talking about, Brother Qi Ming?"

Conan tried to appear calm, but inside he was panicking.

If the tranquilizer gun had been discovered, that would be one thing, but he had never shown Qi Ming the function of the bow tie before.

And shoes that enhance leg strength are one too!

Conan had a bad feeling about it.

Could it be that this person witnessed his entire reasoning process in a certain case, and also saw him using the enhanced shoes...?

Wait, that's not right. If he had actually seen them, he would know that the power-enhancing shoes aren't used like that.

Conan dared not think any further, but just when he could no longer bear the torment, Qi Ming released his hand and then gave him a disdainful look.

"Detective, have you no shame? I've already solved the case, and you still want to try your tricks and cause trouble? I'm not taking on any apprentices."

"Forehead……"

Although Conan was puzzled as to why Qi Ming didn't find it strange that he had these things, and still called him the famous detective.

But the other party still doesn't seem to think of him as Shinichi Kudo?

Conan calmed himself down and said to Qi Ming with a serious expression, "Brother Qi Ming, the culprit is definitely not Ogiwara Keie."

"There are still many doubts in this case, and I think we should preserve the case for further investigation!"

Qi Ming clicked his tongue and shook his head as he looked at the short, stout man's serious expression.

No wonder you're the main character; your statement is quite positive.

Qi Ming's playful side was aroused, and he squatted down and whispered in Conan's ear:

"Detective, I know I made a wrong judgment, but can you refute it? Besides the first person to discover it, is there anyone else in the scene who is more suspicious?"

Conan was speechless; if he could refute, he would have already taken action.

In fact, Chikashi Tetsuo also had the opportunity to commit the crime, but he did not leave any evidence, and everyone's attention was focused on Ogiwara Keie.

However, Qi Ming's words provoked a bit of anger in Conan.

"You knew it was wrong, so why did you do it and send innocent people to prison? Even a preliminary investigation would have been better!"

Ah, Conan, what a righteous character!

Qi Ming sighed, then glanced at the crowd around him.

Seeing that they were quite far away and completely oblivious to him and Conan, Qi Ming put his arm around Conan's shoulder and whispered:

"Conan, let me tell you the inside story about why I identified Ogiwara Ikee as the murderer."

Qi Ming smiled slightly, but the words he uttered made Conan's eyes widen.

"Because I was the one who actually killed the person."
